Title: Lightweight mk1 .20
Post by: Daztilley on September 11, 2021, 12:21:09 PM
Changed my lightweight mk1 rapid to .20 and fitted a 220cc carbon fibre bottle
Used heat shrink over the barrel to match the silencer

Looking forward to testing it out

A very nice compact piece of kit there Daz.
I like the finish on the barrel that carbon look.

Regards kev.

Kev I think the .20 barrel is a silco blank as it's not blued , so thought that the heat shrink tube would do the trick 👍

Hi Daz. Just got my first .20 rapid, any suggestions as to which pellets to try. I know all barrels are different and there is no one pellet compatible with all barrels, but was wondering what makes to try. It is a Theoben barrel if that helps. Like you I am looking forward to experimenting. Thanks in advance Ken.

Hi Ken I'm using jsb .20 - they group really well and aren't to heavy for sub 12 - there's not a great choice in .20 ........

Cheers kev it's really handy with the 12" barrel - it was .22 but got the .20 barrel cheap 👍
